One resident said: “We all just want a quiet life and be able to relax outside in our gardens.”

“The golf club is aware of one ongoing complaint from a resident, who used to attend the golf club but was subsequently banned.

“A recent inspection carried out by a representative of the local authority confirmed that the golf club has extensive measures in place to mitigate the risk of errant golf balls coming onto neighbouring properties.

“And has taken the best practicable means to reduce the risk of this occurring.

“The golf club is not currently aware of any reports of damage to property of residents, nor any injuries.

“The golf club remains committed to upholding best practices and addressing any concerns proportionately and amicably that may be raised.”
